18 Years
October, 2021.
Three months ago marked half way
How does 18 years make up for an entire life wasted? My boy was fresh 19, but his freedom was barely tasted. It’s like a book was written, and a tyrant erased it. I wish I was there to hit save, or at least, copy and paste it. 9 years down, and I feel like justice hasn’t even been faced yet.
WHAT THE FUCK?
How broken it must be; to let him go free? Charged with murder in the 2nd degree. 9 years gone by, and my brother is still 19.
